“…A total of 15 studies assessed the monetary costs related to climate change and health (priority 5). Of these, 5 assessed costs related to vulnerability to climate change ( Ebi 2008 ; Hubler et al 2008 ; Pattanayak et al 2009 ; Selin et al 2009 ; Tol 2008 ), and 10 evaluated the costs of potential climate change mitigation strategies and their health co-benefits ( Chapman et al 2009 ; Creutzig and He 2009 ; Gilmore et al 2010 ; Hill et al 2009 ; Markandya et al 2009 ; Martinez 2009 ; Morris and Bagby 2008 ; Nadal et al 2009 ; Smith et al 2008; Tollefsen et al 2009 ), although in 1 study, climate change and health were not the primary areas of focus ( Morris and Bagby 2008 ).…”

“…However, among the studies set in a single country, the African Region, the Eastern Mediterranean Region, and the South-East Asian Region were the setting for only 1 study each, whereas the Region of the Americas was the setting for the most studies ( n = 13; Table 1 ). The most common country setting was the United States (the sole country setting for 8 studies) ( Babbitt and Lindner 2008 ; Bedsworth 2009 ; Gilmore et al 2010 ; Hill et al 2009 ; Maibach et al 2008 ; Morris and Bagby 2008 ; O’Neill et al 2010 ; Tagaris et al 2009 ).…”

Background: In 2008, the World Health Organization (WHO) Member States passed a World Health Assembly resolution that identified the following five priority areas for research and pilot projects on climate change and human health: health vulnerability, health protection, health impacts of mitigation and adaptation policies, decision-support and other tools, and costs of health protection from climate change.Objectives: To assess the extent to which recently published research corresponds to these priorities, we undertook a scoping review of original research on climate change and human health. Scoping reviews address topics that are too broad for a systematic review and commonly aim to identify research gaps in existing literature. We also assessed recent publication trends for climate change and health research.Methods: We searched for original quantitative research published from 2008 onward. We included disease burden studies that were specific to climate change and health and included intervention studies that focused on climate change and measured health outcomes. We used MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science databases and extracted data on research priority areas, geographic regions, health fields, and equity (systematic differences between advantaged and disadvantaged social groups).Discussion: We identified 40 eligible studies. Compared with other health topics, the number of climate change publications has grown rapidly, with a larger proportion of reviews or editorials. Recent original research addressed four of the five priority areas identified by the WHO Member States, but we found no eligible studies of health adaptation interventions, and most of the studies focused on high-income countries.Conclusions: Climate change and health is a rapidly growing area of research, but quantitative studies remain rare. Among recently published studies, we found gaps in adaptation research and a deficit of studies in most developing regions. Funders and researchers should monitor and respond to research gaps to help ensure that the needs of policymakers are met.

“…Gilmore et al (2010) analyzed the air-quality effects of a 2000 MWh battery in New York City that charges for 5 hours off-peak and discharges for 4 hours on-peak. When the battery was charged with wind power and used to displace a simple-cycle gas turbine, the resulting social benefit due to reductions in particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) and CO 2 (assuming $20/tCO 2 ) was $0.06/kWh.…”

“…For these reasons, energy storage systems, and in particular battery-based storage systems, are increasingly gaining attention nowadays at the grid-scale level, but also at the commercial and residential level. Moreover, we are in a phase in which electric vehicles [1][2][3] and electric vehicles [4] diffusion is rapidly increasing, and first pilot projects in which batteries of electric vehicles are also used to inject energy into the grid when necessary (vehicle-to-grid, V2G applications) are being implemented world-wide [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. In this scenario, smart battery management strategies will be required to control effectively the complex bidirectional energy flow between the distribution grid and the customers arising from a large deployment of storage systems.…”

“…Indeed, the energy efficiency of the battery-based storage system, i.e., the overall efficiency of both batteries and inverters composing the system, plays a fundamental role in order to keep energy losses as small as possible during the energy transfer processes. In some papers dealing with charging/discharging strategies for batteries, non-unitary charging/discharging efficiency coefficients were considered, but they were assumed as constant values independent on the charging/discharging rate used to charge/discharge the batteries [5][6][7][8]. However, the charging/discharging efficiency of a battery strongly depends on the charging/discharging rate used [13][14][15][16].…”

Battery-based energy storage systems are forecasted to have a rapid diffusion in the next future, because they can support the diffusion of renewable energy sources and can offer interesting ancillary services for the distribution grid. Consequently, energy management strategies for batteries and inverters present in storage systems will play a fundamental role in order to guarantee effective energy transfer processes between storage systems and the grid. This paper proposes an efficient management strategy which allows maximizing the overall energy efficiency of grid-connected storage systems taking into account the actual relationship between the efficiency and the charging/discharging power of the storage system. The effectiveness of the strategy is as shown by analysis results, the proposed strategy can allow a remarkable efficiency increase compared with strategies which are not aimed at the efficiency optimization.
